Winter Ball 2007

I finished this dress just in time for Kim to wear it to the dance. It's a burnt orange tafitta. The pattern is a collection of flowers sewn on the fabric using strips of the fabric.

This is my first pattern design. I want to donate it to the Prom Dress group that gives dresses to girls who can't afford them. We'll see if Kim lets it go.

Gettin 'er Done!

484 Items to go!!!!

I am really having fun checking items off of my list. PLUS whenever I think of starting a new project, I realize it'll probably end up on the unfinished projects list so I don't do it. Instead I find something 'unfinished' to finish.

Plus now I HAVE to do these things since they are on my list. A coworker seems interested in starting her own lists of 100s. I'll keep you posted.

Another Good Idea

How cool is this?

I've been wanting to write a journal for the kids for years. Kind of like an extended baby book, but it never worked out too well. This may be the thing I need. Especially since all of the pictures of me growing up got washing away with Hurricane Katrina.

499 to go

So far I've completed 1 of my unfinished projects!

I replaced or tightened door knobs on all of the doors. I even WD40'd the front door which has been sticking for some time now!!!!

500 Things I will do in 2007

Bless her Heart! Jennifer shared this concept with me. The idea is to create something you will do 100 times/days/hours/miles/etc. by the end of the year.

Well you know how I love to make a list right?

Here we go:
1. Complete 100 unfinished projects
2. Sew 100 items
3. Complete 100 Scrapbook Pages and/or Cards
4. Read 100 books to Christopher
5. Walk 100 hours
